If you are employed, then you will know that employed people have a PF account. Which is operated by the Employees Provident Fund Organization i.e. EPFO. The PF account of an employee works as a saving scheme. Every month 12% of the employee's salary is deposited in this account and the company also deposits the same amount in the employee's PF account. That is, both the employee and the company contribute to the PF account every month.

The government also pays interest on the amount deposited in this account. Some such cases have also come to light in which many times the company deducts money from the employee's salary but does not deposit it in the PF account. Therefore, if ever a question arises in your mind whether the money that your company is deducting from your salary in the name of PF is also deposited in your PF fund or not, then you can find it out in just a few minutes. The way to find this out is very easy. To know this, today we will tell you not one but three ways.
